The president of the NAACP Chapter in Shreveport, James Pannell, is keeping his eye on the situation. Pannell says he plans on giving school officials time to deal with the issue before stepping in. Pannell says, "In the Jena situation, they were given the opportunity to rectify the situation and they didn't. School systems should be given that same opportunity,"

Now that is so nice of James Pannell to be keeping his

on the situation. I am sure he is a Jessie and Al want to be. I am sure the nice folks at Northwood can handle up on this situation. James did get some press out of it. This racial tension has been around for a very long time. I can remember when the buses came to Captain Shreve and the fights started. I must say at Parkway High that the kids seem to get along pretty good. Lot of military folks that have good manners and a police department that is proactive. I am sure James Pannell would love to stir the pot if he gets a chance.
